The wing method

A structured infant assessment system designed to evaluate movement, breathing, oral function, and global tension patterns.

The WING Method Difference.

Babies can’t talk to us verbally, so we have to listen to their bodies. By testing ROM and tension before and after treatment, we can effectively see what is or isn’t working for them at any given moment.

Clearly communicate.

We made it easy for parents and other providers to see that what you are doing is making a difference.

Parents get it.

When parents see the difference in their babies comparing before and after treatment, they will be glad to participate in home-care recommendations.
